Any updates on your experiments brother?




Funny you should ask.....

This is Tray  #1. 75% RGS
                              25% Manure




This one is showing some promise.

The other three had a horrible smell  :puke:  and were put outside.

The next test either way I will try with dry grass clippings instead of fresh.  :rolleyes:

Heres the jar that was inoculated with the last of the CCS LC on September 20th. :waits:  :yawn:




Heres the Honey LC



I have high hopes for this one. :grin:

I'm giving it a go with the cardboard cloning tek. A couple of dozen 2" cardboard squares moistened with rainwater and with about 10 stem stubs in the corrugated grooves of each one. Present working conditions dictate against using agar. I'll post any developments.





Update: they hated it and are all dead!! May try an improved tek with sterilised cardboard. Or resort to a more sensible technique.

All of the above posts are the fevered imaginings of a deluded mind, itself entirely the fictional creation of a somewhat peculiar author with a bizarre sense of humour.

I've just finished inoculating 3 more petris of spores from a wild print given to me by another member, to add to 3 petris of spores from a specimen I collected.  Fingers crossed that at least one of these germinates.

:goodluck:

My tray is still colonizing. Probably another month before being placed in the GH.

The WBS jar is still growing but very slow...as usual. :waits:

A quick update.

Heres both sides of the WBS jar after 45 days of colonizing.




Back in January I placed a few drops of the spore culture from the original syringes onto two PDA dishes. They've been growing in the fridge ever since.




Tray #1 is still going but not a significant change from the last photo.

indoorlibertycaps? i thought they were specificly an outdoor strain suited2harsh conditions???? im a die hard fan of this strain,personally gathered 1200+ this year and have only ate and handed out around300so plenty of fun2come,apart from hawaiin there is simply no other strain that is as good for visuals and that goes for g.t's and mckennaii as well,5g of dry libs will send you into orbit,if you really do know a way to cultivate them do tell....

They're a species, not a strain.  Yes, they've turned out to be very difficult to cultivate indoors.  That's what we're trying to figure out.

Slowly, maybe.  The petries I did from my own print seemed to be showing nada, but I think possibly there's something there after a couple of weeks.  The ones I did from your print seemed to take off a little faster.  However, they might all be showing some bacteria from the syringes too -- I'm not familiar with how this is supposed to look with this species!

I take it you went print to syringe to agar?

I usually just to spore to agar.

.. Going straight from wild prints to syringes (rather than looping spores straight from the prints) might have been a dumb move, frankly.  At least one of those dishes looks pretty good though -- if slow -- and I'll be able to make lots of attempts.

Did you manage to make any more prints for yourself?

Yeah, print to syringe :facepalm: (see above).  However I think I might be OK.  Looking at Nexus's dishes above, the mycelium does seem look a little different from other species I've worked with.  Kinda lumpy looking.

Nexus, were yours very slow on agar too?  Or do you reckon only because they were in the fridge?

It finally feels like the conditions might be right down here for a short hunting season.  Nippy air and wet.  I'm still looking around so I'll send you one back if I get anything.  Otherwise I can cut you a culture from a dish if I manage to get something healthy.

I started with a syringe to agar and they were very slow. They were in the incubator first and then placed in the fridge for later use. They did keep growing in the fridge.
